Police in Madhya Pradesh's Jabalpur have registered an FIR against a lawyer, his brother and a son for obstructing an National Investigation Agency (NIA) team from carrying out its duty during a raid at his house, an official said on Sunday.
One more First Information Report (FIR) was registered under the Arms Act after cartridges were recovered from his house here, he said.
The central agency had conducted raids at 13 locations in Jabalpur during the intervening night of Friday and Saturday in an intelligence-led joint operation with the Anti-Terror Squad (ATS) of Madhya Pradesh Police, a spokesperson of the NIA earlier said.
